21-Mar-2025 | No. Labr./ 336 / (LC-IR)/22013/56/2019

Government of West Bengal via notification dated 21st March 2025, has issued guidelines under Payment of Bonus Act, 1965 for employers and employees By virtue of the notification, following are the guidelines that were suggested: 1. Employers should adopt a flexible approach to bonus payments, keeping industrial peace in mind. 2. Bonus this year should not be lower than last year, and disputes should be settled amicably. Employers are encouraged to provide ex-gratia payments to employees who exceed the eligibility limit. 3. All employees who worked for at least 30 days, including casual or re-employed workers, should receive a bonus. 4. Employers in default of previous years' bonus payments should clear these dues along with this year?s bonus. 5. The Government calls on trade unions and employers? organizations to help maintain industrial peace and resolve bonus-related disputes peacefully. 6. The Government has expressed concern that in previous years, employees in sectors like IT, Hotels, Restaurants, Shops, Security, and some jute mills did not receive bonuses. It is hoped this won't happen again this year. 7. Bonus payments to Muslim employees should be completed before Eid-Ul-Fitre 2025, as per Finance (Audit) Department's directive (No. 1023-F (P2) dated 18.03.2025). 8. The Government expects all employers, including public sector undertakings, to follow this appeal. 9. Employers' organizations are urged to advise their members to adhere to these guidelines. 10. The Government notes that most workers in unorganized sectors are not covered by the Payment of Bonus Act, 1965, and do not receive bonuses. However, the Government expects employers in these sectors to pay bonus or ex-gratia to their workers, including Muslim employees, before Eid-Ul-Fitre 2025.
